Example Question #41 : Indefinite Integrals

Calculate the following integral:

$\int 3cos^{2}xsinxdx$

Possible Answers:

$y=cos^{3}x+C$

$y=-\frac{1}{3}cos^{3}x+C$

$y=-cos^{3}x+C$

$y=\frac{1}{3}cos^{3}x+C$

Correct answer:

$y=-cos^{3}x+C$

Explanation:

We can solve this integral via u substitution:

$y=\int 3cos^{2}xsinxdx$

let u=cosx and du=-sinxdx Thus, our integral becomes:

$y=\int -3u^{2}du$ which equals: $y=-3(\frac{1}{3})u^{3}+C$

Re-substituting our value for u back in, we get our answer:

$y=-cos^{3}x+C$

Example Question #42 : Indefinite Integrals

Evaluate the following indefinite integral:

$\int(9e^2^x+5cosx) dx$

Possible Answers:

18e^2^x+5sinx+C

18e^2^x-5sinx+C

4.5e^2^x+5sinx+C

4.5e^2x-5sinx+C

Correct answer:

4.5e^2^x+5sinx+C

Explanation:

The antiderivative of a sum is the sum of the antiderivatives. The first term in the integrand can be solved by u-substitution, as follows:

$\int9e^2^x dx = 9\int e^2^x dx = 9\int (e^u)(\frac{du}{2}) = 4.5e^u +C = 4.5e^2^x + C$

The second term in the integrand is a straightforward integration of a trigonometric function:

$\int5cosx dx = 5 \int cosx dx = 5sinx +C$

Hence, the antiderivative of the original function is

$\int(9e^2^x+5cosx)dx = (4.5e^2^x+C) +(5sinx + C)$

=4.5e^2^x+5sinx+C

Example Question #41 : Indefinite Integrals

$\int cot(3x+3)dx$

Possible Answers:

ln|sin(3x+3)|+C

$\frac{1}{3}ln|sin(3x+3)|+C$

$\frac{1}{3}ln|cos(3x+3)|+C$

3ln|cos(3x+3)|+C

3ln|sin(3x+3)|+C

Correct answer:

$\frac{1}{3}ln|sin(3x+3)|+C$

Explanation:

This is a u-substitution problem. First, let us rewrite our trigonometric function:

$\int cot(3x+3)dx=\int \frac{cos(3x+3)}{sin(3x+3)}dx.$

We want to replace our variables to make the integral easier to solve.

u=sin(3x+3), du=3cos(3x+3)dx.

Now, we have replaced everything in our integral in terms of our new variable However, we have an extra that was not part of our original function. Therefore, we must divide by so that we match everything exactly. Rewriting, we get:

$\frac{1}{3}\int \frac{du}{u}=\frac{1}{3}ln|u|+C.$ Now, all we have to is substitute our original variable back in.

$\frac{1}{3}ln|sin(3x+3)|+C.$
